Answer:

7x+6 = 6x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x + 3) + 5 x = 3 (2 x - 1)

Distribute

2x+6+5x = 6x-3

Combine like terms

7x+6 = 6x-3

Answer:

7x + 6 = 6x - 3                                  Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Now Jalesa wants to simplify this equation.

Firstly applying the distributive property

Distribute the 2 over the parenthesis and distribute the over the parenthesis

that is,

2*x + 2*3 + 5x = 3*2x - 3*1

2x + 6 + 5x = 6x - 3

After that combine like terms

2x + 5x + 6 = 6x - 3

7x + 6 = 6x - 3

Result is:

7x + 6 = 6x - 3

That's the final answer.
